Benzos are killing me

I went to treatment in 2019 because of the Effexor withdrawals. That’s how I ended up on benzodiazepines. I want off of them. As for my doctor, they were good at responding until I think they realized they can’t help me anymore. They are functional medicine doctors. I don’t have a psychiatrist because he kept insisting I take MORE of the benzos. So I dropped him. My GP is a small town doctor and is no expert on benzodiazepines. He knows very little. I think I’m going to just leave tonight while my family sleeps and check myself in somewhere.

Getting professional help is a really smart next step, wmbcat. I'm sending you strength to do that tonight. Do you have a facility near you? May I ask why you need to do this while your family sleeps? Wouldn't they want to know?
